Jian Xiu was slightly startled when his guess was confirmed, and then he replied, "Uncle, please sit down first. I'll be right there."
Fang Xinghua nodded, walked to the table and chairs next to him, and sat down.
But his eyes couldn't help but fall on Jian Xiu.
Jian Xiu was seen supporting himself on the balance bar with both hands, lifting his legs with difficulty and moving forward.
Because he was exerting too much effort, the veins on his arms were bulging and trembling slightly, and even though his arms were sharing the weight of his body, it was obvious that his legs were still not very able to bear the force.
Seeing this scene, Mr. Fang was quite moved and immediately said, "Slow down, I'm not in a hurry."
Jian Xiu met his eyes, then nodded slightly, "Okay."
At this time, although he didn't want to keep his elders waiting, he also knew that he couldn't be impatient, otherwise falling to the ground would make a worse impression.
After a long time, he finally managed to sit on the wheelchair and then pushed it to the table.
"Uncle, please wait a moment. I'll get you a glass of water."
"No need, I'll just talk to you and then leave." Father Fang stopped him and went straight to the point, "You and my Xiao Jin are in love, right?"
Jian Xiu was a little surprised, and then he remembered that Fang Jianjin's page had been showing "the other party is typing" last night, and he was probably thinking about this matter.
After thinking about it for a moment, he immediately replied honestly: "Yes."
Since Mr. Fang came to him and asked him such questions, he must have confirmed certain facts. At this time, it is undoubtedly best to confess.
"You are answering so frankly, aren't you afraid that I will object?" Fang's father asked back.
"I'm afraid. So, uncle, you came to me today to object to us being together?" Jian Xiu asked back.
Father Fang raised his eyebrows slightly, then chuckled, thinking that Jian Xiu was quite courageous to challenge his army.
He didn't answer and continued to ask, "I saw you exercising just now, and you looked pretty good. Can I ask if you can stand up again?"
Jian Xiu pursed his lips and replied, "The doctor said there's a 30% chance of being able to stand up again, but that's only a medical possibility. Just like surgery, there are only two options for the patient: success or failure. For me, the only choice is to stand up or be confined to a wheelchair forever."
"You are a bit pessimistic, young man." Father Fang couldn't help but say.
"I just don't want to deceive you."
"Does Xiao Jin know?" Father Fang asked again.
Jian Xiu lowered his eyes, then replied, "She didn't know that it was possible for me to stand up. I've been in a wheelchair since the day she met me, so I didn't want to give her hope and then have her hopes dashed."
Father Fang thought about his silly daughter. She dared to tell him that she liked him even though she thought he would be permanently disabled. How much did she love him?
"I heard that you rejected my Xiao Jin twice?" he suddenly asked Jian Xiu.
Jian Xiu heard the anger in his voice, but he didn't know whether he was angry about his rejection of Fang Jianjin, or angry about his kidnapping his daughter, or both.
He could only reply truthfully: "Yes."
"Why?"
"I don't want to delay her."
"You also know that it is a delay, why don't you refuse to the end, and finally be with her?" Father Fang asked one question after another, making Jian Xiu overwhelmed.
But the words "Why don't you refuse to the end" stung him a little. He couldn't help but reach out and hold the armrest tightly, then raised his head and replied, "Uncle, I like Xiao Jin too."
Father Fang was silent and didn't speak.
Jian Xiu looked at him and continued, "Rejecting her would hurt both her and myself, and I've already done this twice. When she mustered up the courage to approach me for the third time, I couldn't turn a blind eye or ignore my feelings. I also liked her, so I couldn't push her away again."
"How long have you known each other?" Father Fang frowned, thinking it was a little too early to talk about love.
"We've known each other for a short time, but time can't be used as a measure of feelings."
Father Fang let out a sigh and remained silent.
This kid is honest and responsible enough. From his every question and answer, you can see that he is calm and thoughtful. Although he seems a little cold on the surface, he is actually a kind person. Overall, he is quite good, but...
His eyes finally fell on Jian Xiu's legs again.
"We're just an ordinary family. As parents, we simply hope our daughter can find her own happiness. I'm sure you understand our biggest concern. It's not that I'm discriminating against you or anything like that, but your situation... Xiao Jin has never suffered much or faced any hardship since childhood. If you two were together, I'm worried her future would be difficult and that you wouldn't be able to give her happiness."
Every word Mr. Fang said was like a knife stabbing into Jian Xiu's heart.
In fact, these words were also what Jian Xiu said when he rejected Fang Jianjin, and they were also his very clear dilemma. But when these words came out of someone else's mouth, it seemed that the world was so cruel.
Thinking about how he had rejected Fang Jianjin twice, Jian Xiu suddenly blamed himself.
so--
"Uncle, I know you're worried, so I will do everything I can to stand up again and bring happiness to Xiao Jin!"
This time, he did not abandon Fang Jianjin unilaterally.
Father Fang was stunned, as if he had not expected him to be so confident.
He nodded and said, "Okay, then you have to work hard. If you can stand up, I will agree that you can be with our Xiao Jin."
